Up for sale is my 57 belair. I've had this car about 12 years and bought it because it used to be my grandpas. He was the second owner, and he sold it to a local guy that drove it an indeterminate period of time before retiring it. I hounded him about it for years until he finally sold it to me but I've finally come to the realization I'm not doing the car any justice to let it continue to set, so I'm hoping to find it a good home where it'll get the attention and tlc that a car of this caliber deserves. I'll describe condition best I can but check the pics, there are lots. The floor pans appear very solid. No apparent holes anywhere. Trunk floor has one spot rusted through, it's pictured. Spare tire we'll is solid. No rust in the deck lid. Bottom of doors look very solid too, just some surface rust. Small spots at the bottom corner of either fender. A couple floor stringers are rusty but inner and outer rockers appear very solid. as you're looking at the pics, the spot above the center of the left rear wheelwell isn't rust blisters as the pic makes it look, it's actually the remnants of some sort of insect nest. Other than the rh fender and quarter this car is all original paint. The quarter was repaired long ago, evidenced by the use of lead filler. The fender appears to be more of a 70s vintage repair, with plastic filler. No other bodywork or paint work has ever been done on this car. No amateur restorations or cobble jobs. Other than the two fender bender repairs this thing is untouched since it rolled off the line. Original trunk mat still there, also pictured in the trunk are some interior trim pieces, light lenses, the missing headlight bucket, trim ring and garnish, antenna base, one of the three original hubcaps still with the car, and some misc. if you see something missing in the pics, it is most likely in the trunk, this car is very complete. You're even looking at (what's left of) the original upholstery! All the windows roll up and down and wing vents crank out like they should. We had the engine running several years ago on a small bottle of fuel. Probably needs gone through but is usable and I believe it original to the car. I know my grandpa never replaced any driveline components and the guy I got it from said he never had any issues and he drove it years earlier to the spot it was sitting when I got it. Same story on the rest of the power train. Pictured are a couple old oil change stickers that support the mileage reading on the odometer. I've got a endorsed title for the car, issued in 1971. I've covered the name on the pic of it for privacy reasons. Also shown is a old photo of the car from when it belonged to grandpa. Feel free to message me with any questions. Absolutely no paypal. cash or certified funds only, and the car will not leave my possession until I am completely satisfied that funds have cleared. I can store the car if need be but it must be paid for within one week of auction end. It should go without saying but here it is anyways: you are not bidding on the opportunity to look at the car or come check it out and make your final decision, if you are high bidder you are the new owner. Check with the wife and bank BEFORE bidding. car sold as is, where is. i have described it to the best of my ability/knowledge, no warranty or guarantees expressed or implied. any potential bidders are more than welcome to come check out the car in person at any time. Thanks for looking.

First 2014 Chevy Corvette Stingray spotted crashed in the wild
Tue, 12 Feb 2013This restyled blue 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is wearing manufacturer plates, and it appears to be the same one seen around the internet in various pictures lately. This crash is likely not part of the Chevrolet testing regimen, however. Digital Corvettes forum member gpetry posted the shot with a note: "got this picture e-mailed from a friend in Arizona last week..." No circumstances are given, other than the incident occurred in the thick of a set of curvy roads, and the coupe ping-ponged off a guardrail and into the rock wall. Hopefully everyone involved in the incident walked away.
It may not be a pretty thing to see, a crashed sports car that's not even available for sale yet, but rest easy. Many pre-production cars are used for development and then unceremoniously crushed and scrapped, anyway. If that's the case here, that makes this wrecked 'Vette less of a tragedy and more of a case of exceptional efficiency.
Chevy Camaro is a good sport, wishes Ford Mustang Happy 50th
Tue, 15 Apr 2014It was 1966 when Chevrolet launched its challenger to the wildly successful Ford Mustang, the Camaro. While the competition between the two brands was already healthy, the arrival of the Camaro set off one of the most intense, model-to-model rivalries in the industry.
That competitive spirit hasn't stopped Chevy and the Camaro from wishing Ford's iconic muscle car a Happy 50th Birthday as the Ford's April 17 anniversary rolls around. These two cars have been linked over the years, and while the rivalry took a break for a few years in the 2000s, today's competition between the Camaro and Mustang is as fierce as it's ever been.
You might recall that this friendliness when it comes to major milestones isn't too rare. Ford put on quite a display for General Motors' hundredth anniversary back in 2008. As the Camaro's fiftieth birthday approaches in 2016, we wouldn't be surprised to see the Mustang sending its best wishes to its Bowtie rival.
Leak reveals GM's 2017 heavy duty diesel trucks to get 910 lb-ft of torque [UPDATE]
Tue, Sep 27 2016UPDATE: Chevrolet officially announced specs for the 2017 Silverado HD and the rumors were true. The truck's new Duramax 6.6-liter turbo-diesel V8 puts out 445 horsepower and 910 pound-feet of torque. Chevrolet says the new motor produces 19 percent more torque and 12 percent more horsepower, while producing 35 percent fewer emissions. Overall, the new engine is a big improvement over the current motor, which generates 397 horsepower and 765 pound-feet of torque. According to Truck Trend, GM's newest heavy duty pickup trucks will pick up quite a bit more power and torque. The publication spotted a recent GM Powertrain ordering catalog that had the engine specs for the 2017 model year and managed to get some screenshots before the catalog was taken down, and they can be viewed here. The screenshots revealed that the 6.6-liter turbodiesel V8 powering the Silverado and Sierra heavy duty models will boast 445 horsepower and 910 lb-ft of torque. This is a substantial gain over the current models' 397 horsepower and 765 lb-ft of torque, and as Truck Trend points out, it exceeds the Ford Super Duty line's horsepower output of 440, but comes short of the 925 lb-ft rating. Truck Trend credits part of this output gain to the new intake system GM will introduce on the 2017 heavy duties. The intake gets 60 percent of its air from a scoop on the hood, with the other 40 percent coming from behind one of the front fenders. GM doesn't reveal horsepower figures in the press release about the scoop, but it does say the cooler air helps with maintaining the engine's output, and that the scoop does produce a ram-air affect, providing more air at speed. As we know, more air plus more fuel equals more power, but there's likely more to the power increase in this engine than only the intake.
